Hi, @DrEricDing, you might have to update your thread.
Today, @HLGatell reappeared, 19 days after having tested positive for COVID-19. He was also seen earlier today walking with his girlfriend in a park (without 😷) in Mexico City.
Later, in a virtual press conf, he claimed a new test still came back positive, which indicates he’s still contagious (or so he claims).
He rejected discussing the IV treatment he received while hospitalized (it’s assumed it was remdesivir, which hasn’t been approved in Mexico).
He then went on to bashing the media for posting content about his afternoon walk in the park, accusing them of doing it out of “obscure” interests or for “having lost privileges”. No apologies or shame.
It does seem like this kind of people always come back more arrogant and more irresponsible after they have recovered from COVID-19.
They don’t learn from their experience and, therefore, are still unable to comprehend what so many people right now are suffering.
Note: Remdesivir and baricitinib are not approved in Mexico outside of clinical trials.

1. Es captado caminando románticamente en la Condesa.
2. En conferencia, de forma virtual, asegura que aún tiene carga viral suficiente para contagiar aunque ya no tenga síntomas.
3. Rechaza hablar sobre el tratamiento que recibió para su COVID moderado asintomático que requirió hospitalización preventiva, oxígeno suplementario y medicamentos intravenosos.
4. Señala que los medios hacen esas publicaciones por lucro o por haber “perdido privilegios”.
Resumen: No habla de la epidemia. Habla maravillas del fracaso que la vacunación ha sido hasta ahora. Admite que aún es contagioso, pero no se disculpa por no haberse quedado en casa. Condena a medios y a columnistas por su poco rigor “técnico” y “científico”. Viva anlo magno.
